Cafe Dishes Up 'Bluebeary Pancakes' After Bear Trashes Freezer

EVERGREEN, Colo. (CBS4) - A cafe in Evergreen had an unexpected visitor late Saturday night or early Sunday morning. A bear caused a lot of damage to the business, specifically the kitchen freezer.

The cafe posted a sign on its front door saying, "Sorry, we're closed due to bear shenanigans."

They say the animal tried to break into the freezer, but couldn't, so the animal tipped it over.

That's when the bear took off.

The Wildflower Cafe posted about the incident on its Facebook page.

Around these parts we like to think that when something unfortunate happens you just have to grin and #bear it. We don't...
